    No no no! It's Hawthorn that's bad luck.

    Come on! [How many revs per second times how many teeth per rev] well that's the ..th of a second before the next tooth comes down and in which that signal has to get to a cpu and the stop mechanism spring in. And where are these sensors and why don't they interfere with the cutting and why don't they get worn away by the cutting. And just what is this 'circuit' that gets 'completed'. Nice try:001_tt2: Happy to be wrong:001_smile: ETA Not even the next tooth - the first tooth doesn't go through does it? We're talking instantaneous action: not possible.

    Yep, you can zoom in a bit on the linky and there's some cones hanging that would also go with Norway spruce.
  11. Yournamehere
    I mean what even is the top one?
  12. Yournamehere
    Yep, t'ent farmers being subsidised it's the price of the food on your plate that is being subsidised. T'would be interesting if the real cost of production was put on the packaging alongside the price you pay.

    What does it smell of? Lawson: Parsley/pleasant. Sawara: Acrid/unpleasant. Cone scales? Lawson: 4 pairs, rarely five, shield-like, prominent ridge. Sawara: 4-6 pairs, small spike. Cone size? Lawson:1/3 inch, 7-9mm. Sawara: 1/4 inch, 5-7mm.* *Though curiously Phillips gives 1/2 inch 12mm for this. Foliage? Lawson: Slightly longer, slightly straggly, some, slightly overlapping fronds. Sawara: Very neat and tidy, like fine beadwork. Yep s'till raining. [i first thought Lawson til someone said Sawara, whereupon I was plagued by doubt. I now think Lawson.] Happy days ynh

    Well it's defo not Western Red Cedar/Thuja Plicata (which I too didn't know meant plaited, cheers treeman) - the cones on WRC are urn-like rather than pea-like and quite distinctive and WRC - especially when you put the mower over the fallen fronds in autumn smalls of apples and pineapples and oranges all bubbling away in a pan of syrup. If its plicata and you sniff it, you will know cos you will stop and say Wow!. As to the question, Is it Lawson or Sawara? The answer is 'Yes, probably'. There are few things more futile than... It is, however, raining...

    Don't forget that 80% of what you pay at the pump is tax so the actual value of the fuel before it's dispensed is only one fifth of the figure you have in mind.

    Hmm. I'm happy to not use the decomp cos there's no need to and esp now if you say that using it will encourage it to leak which might lead to engine failure and thankyou for that advice. But. If the decomp was fitted 'at the drawing board' and the pull-start mech was designed around the need for the correspondingly reduced torque required to turn the engine over - will I not now be straining the start mech by not using the decomp? Yours Conflicted ETA when I said other machines I was really thinking of a 500 single motorbike engine
  19. Yournamehere
    Does the advice about not using decomp extend to all machinery? All chainsaws? Or just these chainsaws you're talking of?

    Only on a rainy day and only for the obsessive.

    https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=populus+canescens+tower&rlz=1C1WYIB_enGB506&es_sm=93&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=3VxWVI_8O6jksATppIHQCA&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1152&bih=749 Populus Canescens 'Tower' ? Habit: Sub-fastigate. Check. Leaf: as per P.canescens, Grey Poplar, but with extended central Lobe. Check. [All Black and Balsam Pops, and hybrids thereof, can be discounted due to their having simple geometric leaf shapes with finely toothed edges and no sub-lobes or indentations.] It was raining.
